You will be able to follow Ottar online here on the website from the moment that the ship casts off the last mooring in the Museum Harbour on 26 June until she returns around 7 August.

Communications equipment has been fitted on board the ship, which makes it possible to follow the ship’s voyage with information about the course, speed and position. The information is transmitted from the ship via satellite to the website about every 15 minutes.

The boatswain aboard Ottar, Helene Bjerregaard, will write a travel blog along the way so it becomes possible enjoy the experience in your own living room. You will also find the travel blog on the map, marked with a yellow icon.

Finally, we have also provided some information about historical sites in the map. In this way, we hope that you will be well entertained by the voyage, both as it is today and with tales of how it might have occurred in the Viking Age.
